Realistic January

December is over and the diets are in. After all the indulging over Christmas, we have (perhaps reluctantly) tied ourselves to New Year ‘well-being’ resolutions. However, real life can certainly get in the way and our resolutions are put to the test.

Fear not! At Fizz HQ, we have a more realistic take on Dry January i.e. a ‘dryer’ and more ‘selective’ month. Brut Nature anyone?

So, what is a Brut Nature? It’s the same delicious bubbles, just much drier. We’re sipping on Charles Ellner’s Brut Intégral Champagne at Fizz HQ. A fresh champagne which is full of zingy, dry citrus notes, with a hint of ‘biscuity’ richness. Fabulous fizz that’s uber dry.

Dry January isn’t the only popular resolution. There is also a focus on upping activity levels. Here’s a couple of people who have taken this feat of willpower to another level!

Wim Hof ran an Arctic marathon at minus 29 degrees Celsius – while topless. He also holds the world record for being immersed in ice for an hour and 44 minutes. No wonder his nickname is Iceman!

Fancy hitting the weights? Why bother using your arms? With 11 Guinness World Records, John Evans can balance a car on top of his head without using his hands!

We all know if you wobble a spoon quick enough it looks like you’ve magically bent the metal. Well, 76-year-old Sakinat Khanapiyeva from Russia can break horseshoes and twist two-inch steel rods with her bare hands!
